Thanks.

From the photos it looks complete. It has some pitting but not bad. As long as the springs are good, I would say $600-800.

There is a bit of pitting all right,could not find any stamping on the springs,too much rust,but the springs are strong.
So if I offered $600 I would not be paying too much?
Thanks Snake.

Cheaper is always better when you are buying. Start at $450, all they can say is no and go from there.

Well,I got it for $401.37.


It looks a little puny beside the #5,I guess I need a No. 4 1\2 and a No.6.I doubt if I'll find a No.6 around here,they are likely all out west.

Good deal!
